[kj] Geordie's favourite KJ gig - Trafalgar Square 1980

I've got a cassette of it somewhere.  It's only 5 tracks.  As I recall, Pssyche and Requiem are particularly good.

I have a bootleg of it (or it claims it is at least).  There seem to be quite a few people that cited that particular performance of killing Joke as being inspirational.  Partly the band, the day, the mood, etc.  One in particular is Amebix.

Peter Watts recently interviewed KJ members for the September issue of 'Uncut' in Lancaster Gate. From his 'Great Wen' blog:    
     
    
    
"As guitarist Kevin "Geordie" Walker recalled: "My favourite gig was the CND rally in Trafalgar Square. 80,000 people saw us play on the steps of the National Gallery in 1980. Jaz told them: "Margaret Thatcher has bought all these cruise missiles and all you can do is stand waving a fucking placard. You deserve all you are going to get. This one's called "Wardance". It kicked off. It was a killer. We never got invited back and I suspect that's why we never done Glastonbury cos it's the same hippy crowd and they remember."
